Apollo 7 - American Innovations Dollar Trial
Florida and Apollo 7
The greatest accomplishment in our nation's history was the moon landing and it would not have been possible without the innovations discovered in the Apollo 7 mission. Apollo 7 was the first spaceflight to carry an American crew into space. It launched 50 years ago on October 11, 1968, from Cape Kennedy Air Force Station, Florida. The crew of Walter M. Schirra, Donn F. Eisele, and R. Walter Cunningham spent nearly 11 days orbiting the earth and testing equipment that would be used to send Americans to the moon the next year.
American Innovations Dollar Coin Program
On July 20, 2018, President Donald Trump signed the American Innovation Coin Act into law. This exciting new program will be the newest addition to the U.S. Mint's popular Golden Dollar coin series. Beginning in 2019, the Mint will begin producing coins that recognize American innovation efforts of individuals or groups from each of the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and the five U.S. territories.
